The adventures of Hafro are a series of children's books, created by the author Peggy Flo, introducing woodland creatures who face problem solving experiences. They are cleverly written in rhyme using words to help children hear, identify and use different sounds that distinguish one word from another. Each book contains a meaningful moral helping children to understand what is right and wrong in human behaviour. The first book - Hafro and the Wicked Leech introduces some of the characters for the first time. So beautifully and creatively these characters come to life with the wonderful and imaginative illustrations of Charles Barry.
